The dream-come-true scenario of the existence of quantum computers transforming our day-to-day lives is a nightmare scenario ...

A quantum computer algorithm that is used to find the prime factors in an encryption key. Created by applied mathematician Peter Shor in the mid-1990s, Shor's algorithm may be used to break the ...

IBS Software’s Alex Haynes says there is still a long way to go before quantum computers are able to break modern ...

SecurityWeek’s Cyber Insights 2025 examines expert opinions on the expected evolution of more than a dozen areas of ...

All is not doom and gloom, however. There are families of public-key algorithms that aren’t solved by Shor’s algorithm or any of the other known quantum algorithms, although they haven’t ...

Experts say the journey to quantum-safe infrastructure will likely be slowed by multiple technical, operational and strategic ...

This promise is based on a quantum factoring algorithm proposed in 1994 by Peter Shor, who is now a professor at MIT. But ...

Your work will be autograded. We will describe Shor's algorithm and as part of Shor's algorithm show how Quantum Fourier Transform (a very useful operation for quantum systems) is computed. We will ...

They demonstrated the use of “Shor’s algorithm” to solve prime factorization on their box-sized quantum computer. The group ...

While quantum computing poses a credible threat to the security of the blockchain, all hope is not immediately lost.

Developed in 1994 by US mathematician Peter Shor, Shor’s algorithm is a quantum computer algorithm for calculating the prime factors of a number. While it may be easy to discern the prime ...
